Solubility Equilibria I
• Saturated solutions contains solid salts in equilibrium with the maximum amount of the ions in solution that is possible
• The solubility product (Ksp) is the equilibrium constant for this equilibrium situation
• The solubility product (Ksp) gives the maximum concentrations of the ions in the solution and the maximum amount of solid that will dissolve
• The ionic product (Qsp) has the same form has the solubility product and is used to test whether more solid will dissolve or precipitation will occur If Qsp < Ksp, more ions can enter solution and more solid
can dissolve If Qsp > Ksp, precipitation must occur

PbCl2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Reminder: Solubility Equilibria
Ksp = [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2
solubility product constant
• If Pb2+(aq) and Cl-(aq) are present in the same solution at the same time, their concentrations can never be so large that [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2 is bigger than Ksp

x
PbCl2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Ksp = [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2
solubility product constant
• If x mol of PbCl2(s) dissolves in 1 L of solution, then [Pb2+(aq)] = x mol L-1 and [Cl-] = 2x mol L-1
Ksp = [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2 = (x)(2x)2 = 4x3
x = (Ksp/4)1/3 = solubility
• As Ksp = 1.6 x 10-5, solubility = (1.6 x 10-5/4)1/3 = 0.016 mol L-1
Solubility

e
PbCl2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Ksp = [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2
solubility product constant
• If NaCl is added to the solution, [Cl-(aq)] increases so equilibrium shifts to the left: less PbCl2 dissolves [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2+ must remain constant so [Pb2+(aq)]
decreases
The Common Ion Effect and Solubility
Slide 8/13
x
PbCl2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Ksp = [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2
solubility product constant
• If NaCl is added to the solution, to give [Cl-(aq)] = 0.2 M
The Common Ion Effect and Solubility
• If x mol of PbCl2(s) dissolve in 1 L of solution, then [Pb2+(aq)] = x mol L-1 and [Cl-] = 0.2 mol L-1
Ksp = [Pb2+(aq)][Cl-(aq)]2 = (x)(0.2)2 = 0.04x
• As Ksp = 1.6 x 10-5, solubility = 1.6 x 10-5/0.04 = 0.0004 mol L-1
Slide 9/13
e Solubility and pH
• Because of the common ion effect, solubility will be pH dependent if dissolution involves H+ and OH-
e.g. Mg(OH)2(s) Mg2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)
• In this case solubility will be higher at low pH values.

• Fe3+ and Zn2+ can be separated using the pH dependence of the solubilities of their salts.
• For example, Fe(OH)3 and Zn(OH)2 can be separated at a pH of 4.76 (achieved by with a buffer).
Separation of Cations
• Ksp {Fe(OH)3} = 1.0 x 10-38 = [Fe3+][OH-]3
pOH = 14.00 - 4.76 so [OH-] = 10-9.24 M
[Fe3+] = 1.0 x 10-38/(10-9.24)3 M = 5.2 x 10-11 M
Fe(OH)3 is highly insoluble at this pH.
Slide 11/13
x Separation of Cations
• Ksp {Zn(OH)2} = 1.0 x 10-15 = [Zn2+][OH-]2
[OH-] = 10-9.24 M
[Zn2+] = 1.0 x 10-15/(10-9.24)2 M = 3.0 x 103 M
Zn(OH)2 is highly soluble at this pH
Fe(OH)3 is highly insoluble at this pH.
